Serious “Oh no, not AGAIN!” energy…

“Did Ass-Gobbling Right-Wing Lickspittles Ruin the New York Times?”

He means the British currency.

Mamdani elected mayor of NYC, Democrat Abigail Spanberger wins governorship in Virginia, and California passes Prop 50.

AND Dick Cheney died.

Oh we will not forget who bent the knee.

AOC: "The Supreme Court has given Trump a blank check to continue to commit crimes while in office. So we cannot underestimate the threat and danger of this moment, but we cannot respond to that threat with cowardice."

why it's almost like there's a concerted assault on informed consensus by extraction class owned media conglomerates to replace what was left of U.S. political journalism with lazy controversy hounding infotainment and right wing and corporatist agitprop

“Let them eat 401-Cake.”

Cartoon: The man who knew too little The Kickstarter has ended, but good news for procrastinators:�late pledges remain open for a little while longer. You can see some of my photos from the Zohran Mamdani rally at Forest Hills Stadium ....

“They were careless people, … they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made"

Absolute Presidential Immunity and the Evasion of Checks and Balances: My Testimony Before the Senate Judiciary Committee "The potential abuses of official power that are made possible by the Court’s ruling, and the neutering of Congress’s ability to act, are alarming."

2024 prescience: “If the President were to bring a civil suit against the Department of Justice… could he order the Department to settle the case for millions of dollars even if the suit itself were baseless?”

Now we know the answer from our “conservatives”…

New York Times editorial board has compiled "a list of 12 markers of democratic erosion." www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is what "not the odds, but the stakes" was all about.

During the 2024 campaign, those 12 markers could have been in place and operating to guide news coverage everywhere.

Speaking of Sparky fashion…Is there a backstory to his eyeware? Those glasses feel very Devo.

Our Long National Nightmare by Tom Tomorrow Relive the trauma of the last five years through the cartoons of Herblock Award winner and Pulitzer nominee Tom Tomorrow.

It's all hands on deck. I am shamelessly asking, one more time, for reposts and signal boost as this bird glides toward a landing in a few hours. It's gonna be a beautiful book, and there aren't going to be very many available afterwards!

“Your honor, while I may be barred from ‘running down pedestrians’, the law says nothing about ‘backing over pedestrians while laying down sideshow donuts’, therefore…”

right. given the numbers, “how to win back the working class” should be as much about care and service workers as hard hats. and yet.

Some billionaires' yachts have more drugs than any of these fishing boats. Can we blow up those instead?

“Making Sense of the Federal Forces on the Streets,” with photos of how they’re uniformed and equipped

The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Many people are saying the Republicans shut down the government to bulldoze the White House without permission and build the Epstein ballroom.

And by “East Wing” they mean “Government”.

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help," is actually a pretty good slogan and aspiration for a political party.

Trump treats the White House the same way he treats the US Constitution.

Thank you for your service.
